User Talk Pages WP:USER edit

Per Wikipedia policy's, I am allowed to delete anything on my user talk page at any time. Refer to WP:REMOVED for more information on removal of comments from a user page or user talk page.

Removal of comments, notices, and warnings

Policy does not prohibit users, whether registered or unregistered users, from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred. The removal of material from a user page is normally taken to mean that the user has read and is aware of its contents. There is no need to keep them on display and usually users should not be forced to do so. It is often best to simply let the matter rest if the issues stop. If they do not, or they recur, then any record of past warnings and discussions can be found in the page history if ever needed, and these diffs are just as good evidence of previous matters if needed.

A number of important matters may not be removed by the user—they are part of the wider community's processes:

  • Declined unblock requests regarding a currently active block, ArbCom-imposed edit restrictions currently in effect, confirmed sockpuppetry related notices, and any other notice regarding an active sanction
  • Miscellany for deletion tags (while the discussion is in progress)
  • Speedy deletion tags and requests for uninvolved administrator help (an administrator will quickly determine if these are valid or not; use the link embedded in the notice to object and post a comment, do not just remove the tag).
  • For IP editors, templates in Category:Shared IP header templates and notes left to indicate other users may share the same IP address.
  • {{Noindex}} added to user pages and subpages under this guideline (except with agreement or by consensus). Note this can safely be removed from talk pages and subpages where it has no effect. (see below)

Note that restoring talk page notices is not a listed exception to the three-revert rule.

Editing of other editors' user and user talk pages WP:NOBAN edit

In general, it is usual to avoid substantially editing another's user and user talk pages other than where it is likely edits are expected and/or will be helpful. If unsure, ask. If a user asks you not to edit their user pages, it is probably sensible to respect their requests (although a user cannot avoid administrator attention or appropriate project notices and communications by merely demanding their talk page is not posted to).

Don't restore removed comments WP:DRRC edit

There are only four types of messages that a user should not remove: declined unblock requests while the block is still in effect, confirmed sockpuppetry notices, miscellany for deletion tags (while the discussion is still in progress) and shared IP header templates for unregistered editors. These templates are intended not only to communicate with the user in question but also to communicate with others.

Users should not remove only portions of another user's comment, nor edit their comment in any other way. This includes paraphrasing, or correcting spelling, grammar, or factual errors. Even though these actions may be well meaning, they can change the intent of the original user's comment. Indentation or re-sectioning of comments (to help identify who said what or to provide chronological context) is allowed. Removing wikilinks without removing the displayed text is also allowed, as users may not want their talk page to show up in the "what links here" special page for certain wikipedia pages.

Users who repeatedly restore the same comment to another user's talk page may be blocked for violating the three-revert rule or harassing another user, regardless of whether the talk page is for a registered editor or for an unregistered "anonymous" editor.

Commons edit

Hi, I've left some questions for you at Commons:Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard#Image:Killbot.jpg_and_Image:J_Devil_.28Jonathan_Davis.29.jpg. Just thought I'd leave a note here in case you saw his before your Commons talk page. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:58, 4 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

New Korn album edit

I'm not disputing that they have entered the studio to record an album. That's what your reference (http://www.rollingstone.com/music/videos/korn-enters-the-studio-for-new-album-20130502) states as well. The problem is that they don't have a name for the album. They don't have a release date. They don't even have a label. Take a look at Worship Music (album). They started recording it in 2008 and it wasn't complete until 2011. So the general rule on Wikipedia in relation to album projects is that without an album name and release date we only discuss it with prose, not with a discography entry. You can see that on U2's article. They have been recording for several months now and there is no entry for an upcoming album. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:57, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

They do have a label, Prospect Park Records. That was announced months ago. http://audiokorner.com/?p=8694 http://www.bkentertainmentgroup.com/clients-2/don-gilmore
Does the album have a name?
Is there a specific release date? Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:18, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
Currently the album does not have a name. The release date at this time is Aug/Sep according to Ray Luzier. That's the only specifics they have released. I know all instrument tracking is complete and vocals are nearly complete. Nbcwd (talk) 22:20, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
Seems simple then. Don't add it since things can still change. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:32, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'm not the only one that has added and I won't be the last one I'm sure. This "discussion" should have been on the Talk:Korn, not my personal one. Decisions can not be made on my personal talk page so please post your issues on the Talk:Korn. So if you want to make a decision on what should or should not be on the Korn article, do it on that talk page Talk:Korn...not a personal user talk page. Thank you! Nbcwd (talk) 00:37, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
Agreed that it should not have been here, but you can deal with the Korn article. I'll deal with the Head article. And it's not a decision, it's the way things are done on Wikipedia album/music articles. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:29, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
There is more to life than wikipedia. Nbcwd (talk) 08:22, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
